Hello Spinsel,

I'm a fan of the achievements of Verlinden.
The quality, price is very good.

Face painting is superb. Bravo

Hi Markus, I like what you have done on the fleshtones.
Following...

markus, very nice job of face painting. bill

It looks good to me, I like his expression too.

Nice results

Nice flesh tones on the face.

I agree; for the money, you can't beat Verlinden.

hello all
thnaks for your comments.i got some tipps and will now try to enlarge the colour spectrum of the andrea paints with some cool tones to get an wider range.in any case i have already seen that this colours make life much easier because they work very well and are not drying so fast like revells acrylics which let you nearly no time for blending.
its hard to believe that acrylics from different makers have so totally different aspects in them.
so iam an convert in ways to andrea.even if the nozzles still clogg.so always pocking with the needle
thanks so far.
cheers

Good work so far my friend. !!

hello
here painting did go on.i wanted some decoration on the hat.medieval people did fancy decorations.so if one looks at items from the wreck of henry the eights ship MARY ROSE even bow mans bracers of leather had stamped in decorations.girtles where decorated with stiching.ect
so i opted for some decorations on the hat like stiched or embroidered.in the style it could be have used in this time frame.
one should avoid to use to many differenet colours.and the colours should be not to bright.some muted tomes work best.ion the boxart the bust has an violett jack an red hat which do not look too appealing.if one goes more for the colour range used in that times you end with an really lovely item
cheers

Great start Markus.
The fresh tone is very wonderful.
I'm looking forward to completion.

Mitsutaka.

Markus, great work on the facial tones and a good colour choice for the clothing and hat.

Cheers Ken
